Data Flags & Calculations:

Any analytical tests or individual analytes within a test flagged with a Qualifier indicate a deviation from the method quality 

system or quality control requirement. The qualifier description is found at the end of the Certificate of Analysis (sample results) 

under the qualifiers heading. All results are reported on a dry weight basis unless otherwise noted. Subcontracted data 

included on the Duke Certificate of Analysis is to be used as information only. Certified vendor results can be found in the 

subcontracted lab final report. Duke Energy Analytical Laboratory subcontracts analyses to other vendor laboratories that have 

been qualified by Duke Energy to perform these analyses except where noted.

Data Package:

This data package includes analytical results that are applicable only to the samples described in this narrative. An estimation of 

the uncertainty of measurement for the results in the report is available upon request. This report shall not be reproduced, except 

in full, without the written consent of the Analytical Laboratory. Please contact the Analytical laboratory with any questions. The 

order of individual sections within this report is as follows:

Job Summary Report, Sample Identification, Technical Validation of Data Package, Analytical Laboratory Certificate of Analysis, 

Analytical Laboratory QC Reports, Sub-contracted Laboratory Results, Customer Specific Data Sheets, Reports & 

Documentation, Customer Database Entries, Test Case Narratives, Chain of Custody (COC)

Certification:

The Analytical Laboratory holds the following State Certifications : North Carolina (DENR) Certificate #248, South Carolina 

(DHEC) Laboratory ID # 99005. Contact the Analytical Laboratory for definitive information about the certification status of 

specific methods.

Narrative

CASE NARRATIVE

Client: Duke Energy Corporation

Project: Marshall Bottom Ash J12090236

Report Number: 490-6842-1

With the exceptions noted as flags or footnotes, standard analytical protocols were followed in the analysis of the samples and no 

problems were encountered or anomalies observed. In addition all laboratory quality control samples were within established control 

limits, with any exceptions noted below. Each sample was analyzed to achieve the lowest possible reporting limit within the constraints of 

the method. In some cases, due to interference or analytes present at high concentrations, samples were diluted. For diluted samples, 

the reporting limits are adjusted relative to the dilution required.

TestAmerica Nashville attests to the validity of the laboratory data generated by TestAmerica facilities reported herein. All analyses 

performed by TestAmerica facilities were done using established laboratory SOPs that incorporate QA/QC procedures described in the 

application methods. TestAmerica’s operations groups have reviewed the data for compliance with the laboratory QA/QC plan, and data 

have been found to be compliant with laboratory protocols unless otherwise noted below.

The test results in this report meet all NELAP requirements for parameters for which accreditation is required or available. Any exceptions 

to NELAP requirements are noted in this report. Pursuant to NELAP, this report may not be reproduced, except in full, without the written 

approval of the laboratory.

Calculations are performed before rounding to avoid round-off errors in calculated results. All holding times were met and proper preservation noted for the methods performed on these samples, unless otherwise detailed in the 

individual sections below.

All solid sample results are reported on an "as received" basis unless otherwise indicated by the presence of a % solids value in the 

method header.

This laboratory report is confidential and is intended for the sole use of TestAmerica and its client. RECEIPT

The samples were received on 09/18/2012; the samples arrived in good condition, properly preserved and on ice. The temperature of the 

coolers at receipt was 19.4 C.

Except: Method(s) 7471B: The following sample(s) was received at the laboratory outside the required temperature criteria: Bottom Ash 

(490-6842-1).

MERCURY

Sample Bottom Ash (490-6842-1) was analyzed for mercury in accordance with EPA SW-846 Method 7471B. The samples were prepared 

and analyzed on 09/21/2012. 

No difficulties were encountered during the mercury analysis. All quality control parameters were within the acceptance limits.

PERCENT SOLIDS

Sample Bottom Ash (490-6842-1) was analyzed for percent solids in accordance with EPA Method 160.3 MOD. The samples were 

analyzed on 09/19/2012. 

No difficulties were encountered during the % solids analysis. All quality control parameters were within the acceptance limits.

RE: Project DUK-HV1201 Client Project: J12090236

Dear Mr. Perkins,

On September 18, 2012, Brooks Rand Labs (BRL) received two (2) wastewater samples and

three (3) corresponding field blanks. The samples were logged-in for total Hg analysis. All 

samples were received, prepared, analyzed, and stored according to BRL SOPs and EPA 

methodology.

The results were blank-corrected as described in the calculations section of the relevant SOP

and may have been evaluated using reporting limits that have been adjusted to account for 

sample aliquot size. Please refer to the Sample Results page for sample-specific MDLs, MRLs, 

and other details. 

In sequence 1200745, all analyses following continuing calibration verification (CCVA) standard 

were not within the instrument calibration. All samples were re-analyzed in sequence 1200753. 

Aside from concentration qualifiers, all data was reported without qualification and all associated 

quality control sample results met the acceptance criteria.

BRL, an accredited laboratory, certifies the reported results of all analyses for which BRL is 

NELAP accredited meet all NELAP requirements. For more details, see the Report Information

page of the report. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding this 

report.

Sincerely,

Definition of Data Qualifiers

(Effective 9/23/09)

Laboratory Accreditation

BRL is accredited by the National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (NELAP) through the State of Florida 

Department of Health, Bureau of Laboratories (E87982) and is certified to perform many environmental analyses. BRL is 

also certified by many other states to perform environmental analyses. For a current list of our accreditations /certifications, 

please visit our website at <http://www.brooksrand.com/default.asp?contentID=586>. Results reported relate only to the 

samples listed in the report.

Common Abbreviations

These qualifiers are based on those previously utilized by Brooks Rand Labs, those found in the EPA SOW ILM03.0, 

Exhibit B, Section III, pg. B-18, and the USEPA Contract Laboratory Program National Functional Guidelines for Inorganic 

Superfund Data Review; USEPA; January 2010. These supersede all previous qualifiers ever employed by BRL.

B Detected by the instrument, the result is > the MDL but ≤ the MRL. Result is reported and considered an estimate.

E An estimated value due to the presence of interferences. A full explanation is presented in the narrative.

H Holding time and/or preservation requirements not met. Result is estimated.

J Estimated value. A full explanation is presented in the narrative.

J-M Duplicate precision (RPD) for associated QC sample was not within acceptance criteria. Result is estimated.

J-N Spike recovery for associated QC sample was not within acceptance criteria. Result is estimated.

M Duplicate precision (RPD) was not within acceptance criteria. Result is estimated.

N Spike recovery was not within acceptance criteria. Result is estimated.

R Rejected, unusable value. A full explanation is presented in the narrative.

U Result is ≤ the MDL or client requested reporting limit (CRRL). Result reported as the MDL or CRRL.

X Result is not BLK-corrected and is within 10x the absolute value of the highest detectable BLK in the batch. 

Result is estimated.

Field Quality Control Samples

Please be notified that certain EPA methods require the collection of field quality control samples of an appropriate type 

and frequency; failure to do so is considered a deviation from some methods and for compliance purposes should only be 

done with the approval of regulatory authorities. Please see the specific EPA methods for details regarding required field 

quality control samples.
